New York rapper Tekashi 6ix9ine is reportedly on the road to recovery after being hospitalized. The hip-hop star reportedly overdosed on a mixture of diet pills and caffeine.
Tekashi 6ix9ine Hospitalized In Florida
According to reports, 6ix9ine was admitted to a Florida hospital Tuesday after having a bad reaction to the pills and caffeine. While details are still coming in, the motivation behind the pills was because Tek weighed over 200 pounds during his stint in prison and wanted a fast solution to shed the fat.
Tekashi told the Shade Room that his overdose was a result of pairing a cup of coffee with two Hydroxycut pills instead of the recommended daily dosage of one. The rapper also claimed that the combination of diet supplements and caffeine sped up his heart rate. Tekashi began to “sweat excessively” soon after his consumption. The New York native, who is currently on probation, also told the Shade Room that he was not using any drugs at the time of his overdose. Tekashi reportedly claims that he was using Hydroxycut pills because of his serious weight gain during his time in prison. (MSN)

Tekashi 6ix9ine’s TattleTales Arrives
A few weeks ago, 6ix9ine put out his new TattleTales album to the world. In addition to previously released songs like his Nicki Minaj-featured “TROLLZ” smash, Tek secured records with artists including Akon, Smilez and Leftside.
Although he’s definitely lost a few friends in the hip-hop community, 6ix9ine’s 13-track LP features Nicki Minaj, Smilez, Leftside, Lik AK, and Akon, whom he samples on the album’s first track, which is, of course, “LOCKED UP 2.” The album also includes the previously released “PUNANI” and “GOOBA.” 6ix9ine also released a music video for his single “TUTU,” which features the rapper and his signature rainbow style cavorting around a theme park with Blac Chyna and a flamethrower, naturally.
